well...today's RRE selection has:
1) The Off-Key Crazy Whistling Guy Whose "Melodies" Seep Through Earplugs
2) Hey-I-Am-Ignoring-My-Cell-Phone-
Even-Though-It's-At-Top-Volume Guy
3) The Oh Hell No You Dint Just Look At Me Because My Discman Is Blasting So Loud Your Eardrums Are Bleeding Hell No So Now I'm Turning It Up Woman
4) Random Screaming Kicking Seat-Pounding Child (accompanied by The Our Child Is A Saint And We're Ignoring Him Family)
5) Screaming Gaggle of Mexicans Who Keep Getting Louder On Their Way To Their Newark Construction Job
(technically, the last two are groups... but still damn annoying)
*The Riff-Raff Express is a phrase coined by gigglechick in regards to the North Jersey Coastline's 7:51am out of manasquan... most of the Riff-Raff boards the RRE at Long Branch at 8:24am
** This is only a "selection" of five people/groups. This does not, in any way, represent every annoying occurance that one may experience on the RRE... Said "5 people" were on the 3rd car from the back on the 8:24am out of LB on 11.30.04.
*** The author of this article has excluded the man who carried garbage bags that smelled of some sort of disinfectant/industrial strength cleaning solvent and who was talking on his cell phone with it on speaker... because the author got up and moved to the next car.
